New Leadership for GOJO

US-based hand sanitizer vendor GOJO has appointed Marcella Kanfer Rolnick, a third-generation member of the founding Lippman-Kanfer family, as Executive Chair.

Kanfer Rolnick has been Vice Chair since 2007 and subsequently co-led the 72-year-old business alongside her father Joe Kanfer. Prior to that, she helped launch the Purell brand in the consumer market and established the company’s initial e-commerce strategy in the late 1990s.

Meanwhile, Kanfer, who was previously Chair and CEO, is now transitioning to the newly formed role of ‘Venturer’.

He commented: “Today marks a significant moment in GOJO history and for the Kanfer family. Over the past ten years – in her expanded role as GOJO Vice Chair – Marcella has been my colleague and critical shaper of our strategic direction.” - (OPI)
